Being from out of town, we read reviews on this restaurant which were quite positive and thought that we would check it out. We were not disappointed. From the cocktails to the appetizers to the entrees everything was delightful. The waitress serving our table was quite helpful in assisting us in making our dinner choices. The atmosphere is very casual and comfortable. We highly recommend dinner at The Boathouse.

This is one of my favorite Naples locations, but it’s so hard to get into and to deal with in season. I always make it a point to go off-season to just enjoy the peace and quiet and the beautiful surroundings and the fabulous service and food. We had the best server who paid plus attention to our needs, but was not intrusive I can’t wait to go back again, which I will do many times before season hits !!

Beautiful scenery sitting outside. Weather was warm, maybe fans should be considered for outdoor seating. Food was very good as always. Should also consider serving at least one side with dinners.

Our server was exceptional!! On point with all her recommendations and always made sure we were comfortable & were having a great dining experience. I regret not remembering her name. My husband and I had a reservation at 12:30 pm May 24th we sat at the far corner table to the left if that helps to identify who our server was. She deserves the recognition. We stopped by Naples for a day trip. The boathouse definitely delivered 100% ambiance, views, food, value, entire staff including the valet gentleman, hostess & especially our server were all 5 star rating. Highly recommend the boathouse!! Will be visiting again in the near future.
